Crossing Lines Season 1 Review “Desperation & Desperados”

Crossing Lines continues to surprise me. To be fair, they’re usually small, unexciting surprises, but the fact remains that the show does manage to throw me off guard every once in a while. In this week’s episode, “Desperation & Desperados,” the surprise was that the show actually picked up on the thread of Tommy’s brother Colin being a criminal.

In fact, several of the characters were given a push forward this week. Aside from Tommy’s familialstrife, we learned why Carl was at the bank in the last episode, though it wasn’t exactly a huge surprise. Also, if his goal was to shut down the carnival’s bank account, I have to wonder how he had planned to accomplish that goal before the bank robbery. Had the bank manager already taken money from the place? And if so, how did Carl know about it? Also, Sebastian seems ready to learn more about his child, though not much time was spent on this decision.
